The Return Of Zade Delamonte: The Humiliated Son-in-law Heart attack
"Mr Harrison, is there a problem?" The official asked. Lance couldn't get a word out as he stared at the audience. Several thoughts ran through his mind as his brain analyzed possibilities. He jerked back to life the minute a hand touched his shoulder.He fished his pockets for the flash drive and took it out. "Play this," he handed the flash to the operator."But Mr Harrison…""Do it dammit!" Lance snapped. He stared at the projector, praying to whoever was listening that it wasn't what he was thinking. There was no possible way he could have been scammed of millions of dollars right before a huge audience.Besides, Tridax had placed a bounty on him for theft so he was convinced there was no way it could have been a sham.By the time both product overviews appeared on the projector side by side, Lance realized that the pictures they stumbled upon weren't a pure coincidence or carelessness on the part of Antony, but were carefully planted to secure the confidence of investors.Lance
The Return Of Zade Delamonte: The Humiliated Son-in-law Loan
It took a few days for Roselia to understand what Lance fully meant at the hospital. He sold off two of his pricey cars as well as the car he gifted her. Her mother was furious and threw tantrums here and there, but Lance didn't even bat an eyelash. He is more interested in raising a substantial amount to fund his new project. He curtailed their lavish outings, stopped getting her pricey gifts, and sold out almost fifteen percent of his shares in Lance Corp.Even though things had fallen apart, the company didn't seem to be affected by the change. Probably because Lance was selling off properties to ensure the stability of the company. As much as Roselia hated that every bit of luxury she enjoyed was taken from her, she was willing to bear with Lance. She was one hundred percent confident that everything would bounce back tenfold stronger and she would enjoy more for sticking with him through it. As for Zade, days ago, she confronted him about the auction but the man seemed totall

"Are you writing me a cheque?" Roselia asked. Zade gave her a flat look. "No.""No?""I'm giving you the permission to call her," he stated."You really want me to call her? You know you can just give in to my demands and…""Cut the crap. You want to tell her about the loan, don't you? Go ahead and tell her then. You don't need to threaten me, just do it," he interrupted. "You think I'm playing? I'm really going to call her," she warned. Zade rolled past her to the documents. He picked them up and scanned through them.When he felt her gaze on him, he asked, "Do you need to take pictures as proof? Here, click photos of these."Roselia stared at the documents he stretched to her, unsure of what to do. Was he trying to test her or did Elizabeth know about the loan? If she didn't, why was he comfortably urging her to expose him?"Does she know about the loan?" She asked quietly. Zade dropped his hand, "no.""Then why are you encouraging me to tell her?" She asked with surprise."Becau
The Return Of Zade Delamonte: The Humiliated Son-in-law Shares
Lance woke up to the sound of the doorbell. At first, he was reluctant to answer, but then he was curious to know who was at the door at such an ungodly hour.He grumpily got off the bed and went to answer the door. He opened the door and blinked. "Rose?" His eyes fell on the bags with her. "what are you doing here with so many bags? It's not weekend yet.""You should have an idea already. I'm tired of Zade. He's not only annoying but selfish as well and very stingy. He has the money yet he wouldn't take care of me," she complained. "I see…" Lance trailed."I just hate him. He keeps making things harder for me. I can't take it anymore, which is why I've decided to leave him for good. I have been denying you because I thought something could happen between him and me. I wanted us to go back to the way it used to be, but with the money of course. I didn't plan to replay our stupid broken love here, but Zade is not even making things easy for me. I'm tired of putting up with him," she
The Return Of Zade Delamonte: The Humiliated Son-in-law Missing
Lance stabbed the eggs idly with his fork. Events of the previous day kept replaying in his mind. No matter how hard he thought about it, nothing seemed to make sense. Aside from the shareholders he already knew, no one else had shares in Lance Corp, so where did the stranger pop out from?He calculated the shares of the current shareholders in his mind over and over again and it summed up to eighty-two percent. That added to his eighteen percent would make it a complete hundred so where the hell did the sixth percent come from?Only one of them had thirty percent in shares which, to the best of his knowledge, was the highest so far. So what was this talk about the rest of them sharing thirty-five percent?He had so many questions to ask, but they insisted he wait for the meeting scheduled next week to present his questions and concerns."What happened?" He blinked when he heard Roselia's worried voice. "You've been playing with your food for over ten minutes. Is there a problem?""I
The Return Of Zade Delamonte: The Humiliated Son-in-law Meeting the new chairman
Lance woke up to find Roselia already dressed. He rubbed his eyes sleepily and glanced at the clock. It was past 9 a.m."Where are you going this early?" He asked. "Early? I should be asking why you're still sleeping. Have you checked the time? It's almost ten," She told him. Lance groaned inwardly. Left to him, he would have slept in the whole day, but he had to keep up the charade. To avoid letting her know about the problem at the company, Lance resolved to play it cool and act like everything was normal, even though he was no longer CEO.Today was the meeting with the new chairman and Lance couldn't miss it for anything. He had so many questions regarding the new management and even researched for additional information.The meeting was by twelve which was why he was still in bed."I'll be going later, for now, I just want you to spend time with me," he replied."Right now?" He nodded. "Sorry babe, but I'm not sure that will be possible. My mom just called me to come home urgent
The Return Of Zade Delamonte: The Humiliated Son-in-law Busted
Zade rolled to the table, leaving Lance perplexed. Everyone in the room stood in greeting, while Lance stared speechlessly. By the time they sat, Lance remained standing, staring at Zade with a slightly dropped jaw. "Please have a seat, Mr Harrison.""You don't tell me what to do," Lance asserted. "I demand an explanation right now.""If you'll have a seat, you'll understand what's happening," Zade replied, calmly. Lance felt more pissed. The way Zade addressed him as one who was inferior to him. The man could deceive anyone with his fake calm and pretend to be the responsible one but Lance wasn't concerned.His desperation for answers overshadowed the need to please."Have a seat, Mr Harrison," Sebastian's irritation was evident in the crispness of his voice.Lance sat down, staring expectantly at them. Zade threw him a corny smile that fueled the rage within him. However, Zade controlled his temper and remained seated. "Now everyone is present, we declare this meeting open."La

"Lance? You're back so early?" Roselia gasped. His eyes narrowed at both of them. "What pregnancy? Are you pregnant with another man? Your ex-husband?" He asked. Roselia glanced at her mother. She didn't want to ruin her chances with Lance, but at the same time telling him the truth would cause damages. "I asked a question, damn it! Are you pregnant for Zade?""I… I… the thing is…""She's not pregnant, okay. It was just a ploy to keep her beside Zade while he was with Elizabeth. She is not pregnant, alright? There is no need to be angry," Mrs Harper interrupted her. Lance's furious expression remained the same. It was then he realized that both he and Zade had been nothing but prawns in their quest for wealth. She pretended to be pregnant to trap Zade while she clung to him like he was the love of her life. All in all, she'd been nothing but a gold digger. He already had a hint about it and he was ready to overlook it, but this pregnancy issue coupled with the conspiracy at the

Happy
The hospital was in chaos. Just a few hours ago, they were busy trying to deliver a woman of her baby and now, there was a blood bath. Doctors, nurses, and patients scampering for their lives. Edgar arrived at the hospital just a few minutes after the Delamontes did. With the guards positioned around, he knew there was no way to carry out the initial plan. He wanted Elsa. As revenge on Zade for ruining his life, he wanted to kidnap Elsa and the baby. Unfortunately, the security was too tight.Even if he succeeded in getting into the hospital, there was no possibility of getting out unscathed and alive. So he decided to face them squarely and it resulted in a bloody gunfight. The Delamontes were with Elsa in the private ward, with the Doctors and nurses attending to her.No one cared about the blood bath outside. Their priority was for Elsa to deliver safely.Edgar was able to take down the guards at the entrance but just when he thought he'd succeeded, more came out the through th

Labor
“You sure this plan is going to work?” Elizabeth asked for the umpteenth time.“Why do I feel like it's not the plan you're worried about but the person you might find,” Elsa crossed her arms. Elizabeth let out a sigh. “It's just that, I really like him, you know. I desperately want him to be the good guy. It will break me if he is actually the mole here.”“It's okay to be terrified. It's normal when you love someone, you want them to be an angel. A misunderstood villain and all of that but we need to face reality here. If Zion is not who he pretends to be, then we need to purge him out of your company before he ruins you,” Elsa said frankly.“But why would he?” Elizabeth threw her hands in her hair, confused and frustrated. “I offered him a job as my PA with a heavy paycheck and mouthwatering allowances to enable him to better the lives of his grandmother and son. I got him a fucking luxury apartment. Why would he repay me by sabotaging my company?”“You've said all the good things

The culprit
“Who do you work for?” The question was accompanied by a punch to the man's guts. He let out a groan but that seemed to be all he was going to do. Groan and groan until they got tired of hitting him.“I asked a question! Who is your boss?” He barely acknowledged the question, focusing on the wounds on his body. He had been stalking Elizabeth as usual when three cars entrapped him and he ended up here. The men had been torturing him for three days straight but all attempts to get him to speak were futile. The highest he did was scream and curse at them.“Tie him on the electric chair,” came an order. The man wasn't even panicked by it. They weren't going to oil him because they needed answers so nothing they did scared him.After tying him to the chair. They bathe him with water. His heart heart accelerated a little. He knew what electricity and water could do and frankly, he didn't want to experience it. “Are you ready to talk?” He was given a last chance.“Never!” “Perfect.” T

Zion?
“Mommy!” Helen heard from a distance.“Mommy, wake up!” She heard again. There was a slight pounding in her head. She was surrounded by darkness.“Mommy, wake up!!” It sounded so much like Elaine. She could feel the girl shaking her but she couldn't see her. “Mommy!”Helen tried to speak but her mouth was not cooperating. It felt like it had been sewn shut.There was another voice in the background. It didn't sound like Elaine’s but there was a familiar feel to it. Her hazy mind couldn't comprehend anything at that moment. Even her mind was struggling to process her situation. Why couldn't she open her eyes? It was obvious now that she wasn't in the dark, she was still unconscious. “Mommy!!” The little girl was weeping now. Helen struggled to get her eyes open. To tell the girl that she was fine. That everything would be fine.“Is Mommy dead?” She heard that familiar voice.“No, she's not. Look here, she's breathing.”Helen was a little relieved. At least her little girl was sensib

Mole
Elizabeth arrived at the office looking tacky which was so unlike her. Zion followed her into her office curiously. She'd never been an hour to work before and definitely not looking the way she did now. The eye bags were evident and her lips were chapped coupled with the rough ponytail she had on. She looked sick.“Good morning, ma'am," Zion greeted but she gave a mere nod in response. “Uhm… is everytime alright? You don't look fine. Yesterday, you left the office suddenly and today you look like a mess,” he observed. Elizabeth glanced at him before scampering through the files on her desk. “Ma'am, I know you might not feel the need to talk to me after my behavior yesterday and I apologize. I just had a lot going on so I might have taken out some of the frustration on you," he said lowly.“What makes you think this is about you? Look, Zion, you are just an intern here and I advice you focus on what you're here for. Don't bother yourself about me, I'll be fine," she said coldly.

Poisoned
Zachary and Zade were at the prison in less than an hour to retrieve the body. The body was still warm suggesting that he just died recently.Elizabeth wasn't with them. She had gone in search of Helen as soon as she got off the phone with Zade. Zachary made sure she was heavily guarded. He didn't want anything to happen to her too.“So, may I know why my son who was entrusted in your care is lying lifeless on the floor,” he asked the chief officer.The man exchanged frightful glances with his colleagues. Words could not express how much trouble he'd gotten himself into. He was in the comfort of his home, ready to have dinner with his kids when the officers informed him of the situation.“We… we are working on it, sir. We don't know what killed him but I assure you I will get to the bottom of this,” the man shakily responded.“Not the response I want to hear. I'll ask you again. Why is the man who was entrusted in your care lying lifelessly on the floor?” Zachary asked again, his to

Murder
Her heart picked up as she noticed this strange car taking every turn she took. Once she arrived home, the car sped past but Elizabeth knew it wasn't completely gone. Hurrying to her father's room since her room was bugged, she took a look out the window. Just as she thought, it was packed at the other side of the road, directly facing her house. Elizabeth tried to make out the figure in the car but she couldn't tell who the driver if the driver was male or female because the glasses were tinted. With this person monitoring her, it was unsafe for her to stay home. Who knew how many cameras they planted in there. Shooting her father a quick text, she exited the house with two bodyguards. Her next destination was her grandfather's house. If she went to one of her penthouses or another mansion or even called someone to check the bugs in her room, it was very possible they could use it as an opening to plant more. Releasing the nudes was no problem. Anyone could tell from the footag

Stalker
Elizabeth was signing documents with Zion on the other side of the room answering emails. “Zion,” she called. “I'm not doing anything after work. If it's okay by you, I'd like to see Noah afterward.”There was no response from him. She looked up and found him buried in work. Of course, he wouldn't hear her. It was childish but she folded a paper plane and threw it at him. He looked up with a mortified expression that almost sent her wheezing in laughter.“I suppose that would be funny to you,” he said dryly.“Come on, you don't have to be so uptight. I only threw the plane at you because you were too engrossed in work to hear me,” she said lightly. His brows knotted together in displeasure. He was not enjoying the conversation.“I couldn't hear you because I am deaf,” he gritted. “Why are you being so cranky today? First, you get upset over a little joke and now, you're making it seem like I'm making fun of your disability and I don't like that. I was only asking if I could come o

Denial
“I am not dead yet, there is no need for y'all to pamper me,” Zachary complained.“We know you're fine, father, we just don't care. You just woke up and it is only right we take care of you until you are strong enough and well rested,” Elizabeth said. Zachary didn't like the sound of that. He did not like to be babied.“I don't plan to spend another day here. All you need to do is sign my discharge papers and I will be on my way…”“On your way to where?” Zade questioned. “Neither of us will sign those papers until we confirm you are fit to move.”“Fit to move? Was I diagnosed with paralysis? I can flex my legs as much as I want to. You kids are the ones making this a big deal,” He stated. “We don't care what you think. We will sign the papers only when we feel like,” Elizabeth crossed her arms stubbornly. Zachary glared at them, “If you don't sign those papers, I will…”“You’re smart, Grandpa. I expected you would understand that threatening us would not change anything,” Zade int
